Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X800S
The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X800S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 800mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its large-bore tie-rod build delivers high thrust and drops into standardized ISO 15552 mounting on heavy automation.

About the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X800S
Delivering 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder is built for large-bore automation. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium barrel to the covers for high rigidity, while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for extended service life. The G3/4 port and M36x2.0 rod thread handle the demanding air volume of the 160 mm bore.
With an 800 mm stroke, plan for roughly 6032 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The included -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for position sensing. You can also swap the standard TPU seals for the Viton H option to handle environments up to 150 C.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X800S Is Used
Automated Pallet Transfer
Pushes heavy loaded pallets along a 800 mm routing line using the 10053 N thrust available at 0.5 MPa.
Vertical Material Lift
Raises 500 kg industrial totes through the 800 mm stroke, relying on the rigid four tie-rod build to resist deflection.
Press Ejection System
Ejects formed metal parts from a hydraulic press, using the -S magnet and DMSG switches to confirm full extension.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X800S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 160 mm bore, stepping down to the Ø125 drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 6136 N, whereas moving up to the Ø200 raises it to 15708 N. Because this is an 800 mm stroke, external guide rails are recommended to prevent rod bending under heavy side loads. Remember that a standard cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centred; the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end caps. For suspended loads, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. The ISO 15552 mounting interface lets you reuse existing LB foot or TC trunnion fixtures.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Long-stroke side load — support the rod end
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load; support long strokes at the rod end.
- check Set cushions to minimum, then release gradually.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X800S FAQ
The 160 mm bore uses a G3/4 port. It generates 10053 N push and 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 14074 N push and 13194 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the mounting interface is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. However, it will not hold a load if air pressure drops; the cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends, so use an external rod lock for suspended loads.
